Art is transformative in its power to change spaces and Ackerman Studios is looking to transform the way people interact with art. To make art part of the everyday.

Artist's Statement

Mappa Mundi – A term deriving from the Medieval Latin words Mappa, meaning chart, and Mundi – of the world. Eason’s Mappa Mundi prints portray a contemporary visualisation of today’s cities in juxtaposition to their medieval namesake. They depict a bird’s eye view of some of the most iconic topographical surfaces on our planet over shimmering precious metals drawing on the egalitarian nature of the cities. The context of these works represents a snapshot of our ever-changing landscape that could potentially be completely re-written in as little as a decade.

This series of Eason’s work has been well received in a number of prestigious international institutions including the Barbican, Christies and The Royal Academy of Arts.

Artist's Statement

Bonnie and Clyde is an artist and printmaker who uses photography, paint, collage and print to construct graphic mixed media pieces and limited edition prints. Inspired by everything from signage and iconography to music, film and the lives of other people, Bonnie and Clyde responds emotionally to socio-political occurrences intertwined with personal circumstances. A keen photographer, she enjoys travelling and capturing images that explore her interests in street photography, architecture, the sea and psycho-geography, which are then appropriated into her artwork. The artist is from Bradford in West Yorkshire, birthplace of David Hockney whose work she draws inspiration from.

Artist's Statement

Highly acclaimed sculptor Berelowitz has prepared a stunning sculpture for the H.R. Owen showroom called Timepiece, which depicts the sleek female form in a hourglass style—a shape associated with women for centuries.

Made from white bronze, the stunning sculpture adds to Berelowitz’s presence in the capital and puts her on the map at Mayfair’s ultimate icon – which is celebrating its 90th anniversary in 2017.

Art consultancy Ackerman Studios arranged Berelowitz’s work heading to Jack Barclay Bentley as part of their push to connect talented artists with public points of interest.

Last month, the artist unveiled a contemporary outdoor sculpture at Park Lane opposite the Dorchester Hotel called Moving Forward; plus, further north, she created the Mind’s Eye Tree at Stratford-upon- Avon to mark 400 years since William Shakespeare’s death.
